## Summary

The Home Office has completed a public procurement process for the maintenance and inspection of lifting and hoisting equipment used by the Border Force across multiple UK locations. The procurement, titled "Lifting and Hoisting Maintenance and Inspection," split into two lots: Lot 1 for Maintenance and Lot 2 for Inspection. This open procurement process, governed by the Procurement Act 2023, was initiated in October 2025, with the tender closing on 3rd November 2025. The awarding of the contracts took place on 5th January 2026, following an open procedure. Contracts were awarded under the service category with a focus on vehicle hoists and related maintenance services. The contract period spans from February 2026 to January 2029, with an optional extension of 12 months. The successful suppliers were BRIGGS EQUIPMENT UK LIMITED for Lot 1 and GAP Group Ltd for Lot 2, both large-scale organisations.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in equipment maintenance and inspection, particularly those experienced with vehicle hoists. Organisations that align with the procurement's service requirements and possess a robust track record in maintenance services, as well as compliance with UK governmental regulations, would find this type of contract beneficial for growth. The procurement favoured suppliers with a capacity to deliver high-quality services, assessed at 55% for quality and 45% for price. Businesses with the capability to offer comprehensive maintenance and inspection services across multiple locations while adhering to statutory requirements will be well-positioned for such future opportunities. Additionally, SMEs and VCSEs were considered suitable, indicating an inclusivity policy aimed to encourage smaller enterprises to participate.
